Fair Play To Froch

[Gandalf]

Yes, fair play to Froch, he got Taylor out of there. And going by the judges scorecards he needed to as well. The fight got very exciting at the end. Froch has proven that he is able to handle himself at the world level IMO. Taylor is still a very handy fighter, and a challenge for most fighters at SMW.

I saw a lot of flaws in Froch. His workrate is sometimes lacking and his defence isn't up to much. I'm annoyed that he's gone and called out Calzaghe again, I wouldn't mind seeing Joe come back one last time and box his head off for 12. But the other side of me says screw that, and let Calzaghe enjoy his retirement. If Froch wants a real challenge then he should face Kessler IMO. Kessler won't be getting stopped and doesn't have the stamina issues Taylor has.

And come to think of it Taylor probably deserves a rematch too considering he was up on 2 of the scorecards by a fair margin.

i give full credit to Froch, he made the most of his opportunity, but honestly this fight is a perfect example of a fighter giving away a clear win (Taylor) more than the other stealing the win (Froch), IMO Froch is the weakest of the champions at 168

If Taylor wants a rematch I think Froch should grant it immediately. It has echoes of the first Pavlik fight, except in this case Froch found it harder to come on strong down the stretch. Totally agree that Froch still has a lot to prove. Beating Taylor was a good start, but totally agree that there are still a lot of question marks about him.

thing is Taylor's jab looked the best it has in a long time, but again from 9 on he abandoned it, he has one of the best jabs in the game and IMO could of won the fight on that shot alone, but for god knows what reason, he abandoned it, another thing, Taylor's stamina is shit, don't know if its due to lack of roadwork or what, but if he can't go the full 12 he shouldn't be fighting for a title
